It's true.
Because the treatment for Celiac disease is to follow a gluten free diet, the IRS allows you to deduct those extra food expenses. It's a bit of a tricky process and requires consistency and follow through on your part.
To make this easier for you, here's an easy to follow list from our friends at CeliAct.

Wow, I had no idea this was an option. It's amazing what kind of deductions you can find once you do a little research. For a while I worked in New York and we had an office in Long Island and in Brooklyn. Long story short, I paired up with one of the most effective tax accountants in New Yorkand found out I could be reimbursed for my travels to the Brooklyn office since I spent most of my time in the Long Island office. I received a huge payout during tax season. I can only imagine the return someone who is Gluten Free will see.

Yes, it's a bit labor intensive, but I'm sure it can help many people.
